Yan Mu's eyes flashed, and he quickly took the book back from the prefect's hand, then felt around in his arms.
He threw a small token over and said, "You got the wrong one. Look at this."
He silently put the book back into his arms, his expression still so cold that no one could tell what he was doing, but there was embarrassment in his eyes.
The prefect was still wondering about the other party's intentions, but now... after seeing the words "General Weiyuan" clearly on it, his legs went weak and he knelt down.
"General, I didn't know you were coming. I'm so sorry for not welcoming you."
After carefully observing the other person's expression, he asked tentatively, "What brings you here?"
The emperor is so far away in this world, how come a general suddenly appears, especially at this time.
The prefect was filled with worry, wondering if they had done something to arouse the other party's suspicion, or if it was...
He was anxiously waiting for the other party to give an answer, and couldn't help but think of Cheng He's affairs, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"Someone will come to take over you tomorrow." He had already notified his deputy general to come, and it would be tomorrow at the latest.
Then we will arrange for them to conduct a thorough investigation and not let any of the problems be let off.
The prefect's eyes widened. "General, this...this, is there something wrong with this humble official?"
He really couldn't imagine that such a thing would happen at this critical juncture. It was simply incomprehensible.
Could it be that someone reported me to the higher-ups? But that didn't make sense. If that was the case, someone should have quietly told me.
Yan Miu didn't know why, but the more he looked at the old man, the more annoyed he became. He had originally wanted to leave it for Xunxun to play with on her own tomorrow, but now...
"Come on, put him in jail." It's better not to let Xunxun see such a dirty eye.
The bailiffs immediately stepped forward and dragged the prefect away. After all, the man's status was too high and they did not dare to disobey.
"General, General, you can't do this, you can't do this."
The prefect struggled and howled. He knew the conditions in the prison very well. There were rats and cockroaches everywhere. How could he bear it?
Unfortunately, Yan Mu showed no sign of softening his heart and watched coldly as the prefect was dragged away.
After thinking about it, I decided to just kill the county magistrate as well.
"You guys, go to that county magistrate's house and throw them in jail too."
The remaining yamen runners naturally did not dare to be negligent and carried out the order quickly.
Yan Miao was very satisfied with this and said he would definitely ask for praise when he returned.
However, before he could return to the town, he was called away by news from his lieutenant.
Xunmi prepared everything, and when she dragged her unreliable father to the government office the next day, she found out that the prefect was in jail.
In jail!?
"Young man, may I ask what crime the prefect has committed?" Xunmi thought for a moment before speaking.
"I don't know. General Weiyuan came and locked you up yesterday. If you are alright, go back."
After hearing this, Xunmi was completely stunned. Her husband disappeared yesterday. Bah, no, he disappeared without a trace.
With such news coming today, it’s hard for her not to think too much.
"Daughter, what are you talking about?" Qiu Zhihao spoke after walking for a while, looking back from time to time.
Thinking about where I caught the man this morning, I can't connect the current Mr. Qiu with the previous one. It's really an eyesore.
"This only proves that he has brought disaster upon himself, but it has nothing to do with us. Let's go back."
"Let me tell you first, can't you just be quiet for a while? Can't you see that your little Cuihua is about to chop you up and chew you to pieces?"
Xunmi couldn't help but complain that her cheap dad was really going to new heights.
She thought that Xiao Cuihua was such a beautiful young lady, but it turned out... Damn, who could have told her that she was an old witch in her forties.
Yes, it’s the old witch, the powder on her face is almost falling to the ground.
That mouth is even more creepy.
But she chose to name herself Xiao Cuihua. To be honest, she almost went blind when she saw it for the first time.
Moreover, the other party is also a fierce person, and will directly use benches and teapots if they disagree with each other.
Especially this morning, when she saw Xunmi, she picked up a broom and chased after her father, scolding her as she ran.
She said that her father was spoiled by her and did nothing all day long. When Xunmi thought of that scene, she couldn't help but twitch her lips.
"That's how she shows her love for me. You're still young and don't understand."
Qiu Zhihao gave his daughter a look of disdain, puffed out his chest proudly, and said in a very heroic tone.
"Just wait, I will definitely marry her back."
Xunmi: "..." The other party didn't want to talk to you and threw a small green flower at you.
Oh my god, she decided not to go home, otherwise she would be mad to death.
"I'm going to look for Xiao Cuihua, you can do whatever you want." Qiu Zhihao stopped looking and ran towards another road.
As if he was afraid that Xunmi would stop him, he could run very fast even though he weighed over 140 pounds.
Xunmi's face was extremely distorted. She felt that if she worried about him again next time, she must be out of her mind.
The search was so exhausting that I almost doubted my life, and I inexplicably returned to the small house in town.
Then she was confused again. This place with big red lanterns hanging at the door and red wedding characters on both sides, is it her home?
Or did she go to the wrong place?
I went back and looked again and again, and found that it said Qiu's House. Yes, it was her home.
So what's going on?
"Miss, Miss, you're back." Xiaoyu's voice sounded at the door, forcing Xunmi to admit that this was indeed her home.
But... "Xiaoyu, can you tell me what happened?"
She's only been back for one night, why does she seem so different after coming back?
Xiaoyu happily explained everything her unreliable father had arranged for her to do, and then congratulated Xunmi with great joy.
"Congratulations, Miss. You finally don't have to be talked about by those people anymore. Our Miss is so good, it's not that no one wants her."
She spoke too quickly, and when Xiaoyu reacted, she covered her mouth and looked at Xunmi nervously.
After spending almost a month together, the two of them became more familiar with each other, and Xiaoyu also felt that her young lady had changed a lot.
I no longer scold her at every turn like before, so I became a little bolder.
"You are a little brat, come on, go in first."
Xiaoyu's words just now reminded her that it seemed like she hadn't seen the heroine for a long time. Last time, the heroine was kind enough to put her behind her, so she was still optimistic about her.
Although she cannot interfere with the plot, she can still help the heroine, such as giving her some money.
To be honest, she didn't know how the heroine died in the end. Alas, if her life trajectory was not in her own world, she would definitely lend a hand.
"Miss, Miss, what are you thinking about? The tailor has been calling you for a long time."
